SACRAMENTO'S PLAN WILL PAY YOU FOR PER YARD THAT YOU TAKE OUT. THE DROUGHT HAS ONE OF THE NATION LARGEST SAKE MAKERS WORRIED. VINCENT SHARP REPORTS THAT THE COMPANY IS CONSIDERING WAYS TO KEEP THE WATER FLOWING. FROM RICE -- THIS IS A PREMIUM SELECT -- TO SAKE. THIS IS A FULL -- THIS IS THE COMPANY GEKKEIKAN. IT IS THE SECOND LARGEST PRODUCER OF SAKE. IF THE DROUGHT GETS MUCH WORSE, THE PRESIDENT WORRIES THEY WILL HAVE TO SCALE BACK PRODUCTIONS AND LAY OFF WORKERS. IT IS A HUGE PROBLEM. WE CANNOT MAKE SAKE IF WE DO NOT HAVE ENOUGH RICE IN THE WATER. THE PRICE OF RICE IS RISING FAST. THE RICE PRICE INCREASES OVER THE LAST FEW MONTHS. THE COMPANY IS CONSIDERING ACTION TO FIGHT DROUGHT IN THE FUTURE, LIKE DRILLING WELLS. IT IS IRONIC -- THE VERY REASON THIS COMPANY CAME TO FOLSOM 25 YEARS AGO MAY THREATEN PRODUCTION OOF SAKE. IT EQUATED FOLSOM WITH SAKE. TO BE HONEST, IT IS THE WATER.
